Review of Scruton's 'Pericitione',
By
This review is from: Perictione In Colophon (Hardcover)
This work is distinct from the Xanthippic Dialogues, but it carries on with the lives of several characters, creating a comfortable setting for the reader. The dialogue/deliberate-imitation style of Xanthippic Dialogues is gone; this simply a modern novel inspired by the ancient world. Scruton works a lot of his own conservative ideals into the plot; there is a well-designed 'everything new is old' pattern. Biased, but inspired. This novel succeeds in its efforts to present Colophon as a decoy for the postmodern world. Well-done literature, no doubt about it.
